I agree totally..without a doubt I eat more when sitting at my console at work
then anywhere else.  I work long hours at a high stress job,,everyone around
me is significantly overweight...movement, variety and distraction would do
wonders for us...ofcourse removing the crap they call food that's always lying
around would be great too....it's a constant battle to get it removed.
